FPL Marc Broadcaster, writer and overthinker. Hoping that ‘differential potential’ will catch on.

  1. Holmes
    • 12 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    make some noise for Raya!

    1. Bod
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      ?

    2. The-Red-1
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Has he been spotted?

  2. MARVELLUS
    • 16 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Can decide on:

    A) Lewis (Myko Greaves as back ups) - Sanchez in goal
    B) Colvill / Martinez on rotation? Flekken in goal

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      B

      1. MARVELLUS
        • 16 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Thanks - don't think Lewis is worth the risk? Could make the switch if a leak he isn't playing.

        1. Holmes
          • 12 Years
          1 year, 2 months ago

          Just not a fan of Mykolenko/Greaves/sanchez

          1. MARVELLUS
            • 16 Years
            1 year, 2 months ago

            Ok thanks

  3. el polako
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Can someone please check for me if the early kick off curse applies to a certain Viking.

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      They should be fine against Lillestrom

  4. Smudger’s Dirty Dozen
    • 14 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Final slots on a WC - Pick 2 (currently on AB)
    A Colwill
    B Aina
    C Mykolenko
    D Konsa

    1. polis
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Yep. Those two. Maybe Murillo over Aina for absolute security?

    2. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Not a fan of Chelsea defense but probably going to be better than C and D, so AB for me as well

    3. MARVELLUS
      • 16 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Ab

    4. Smudger’s Dirty Dozen
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Thanks all

  5. FootballRookie
    • 3 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Which GK combo on WC pls...

    1) Flekken/ Areola
    2) Sanchez/ Muric
    3) Sanchez/ Flekken

    1. MARVELLUS
      • 16 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      3

    2. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Quick glance suggests Flekken rotates better with Muric

      1. polis
        • 14 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Rotating budget keepers is a hard no for me

        1. FootballRookie
          • 3 Years
          1 year, 2 months ago

          Is Sanchez perhaps the better keeper tho and more likely to get me points?

        2. Holmes
          • 12 Years
          1 year, 2 months ago

          Depends on the FPL manager I guess. Works alright for me.

    3. Gizzachance
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      3

    4. Rabb05
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Just do flekken and and his #2 to save money and invest elsewhere

  6. GoonerGirl
    • 6 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Is everyone wildcarding? I haven't done it and have fomo. What's the reason most people are wildcarding?

    1. polis
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Literally everyone else is. Did you not get the memo?

    2. Chris_l25
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Most people are targeting fixture swings

    3. Goodfeathers
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I was reluctant to play it but my team needed it. Think I’ve changed 11 of the 15

    4. Gandalf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Getting up to 3 Arsenal and getting Mbeumo and sorting any other fires. I don't have any of those issues so holding the WC.

      1. GoonerGirl
        • 6 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Thanks guys. I haven't had much time to think about my fpl team recently so was wondering people's reasoning for using the WC this GW.

    5. Assisting the assister
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Fixture swing, price rises and having terrible teams

  7. AYEW JOKING
    • 1 Year
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Who to bench a) mazraoui b) lewis

    1. polis
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      A this week

    2. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      B

  8. 1justlookin
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Asking again.... is N'diaye worth a punt over DCL?

    1. polis
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Not for me

    2. Shearer & Sutton
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      No

    3. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Dont think so, rather Evanilson.

      1. polis
        • 14 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Or just play with 10

  9. Lionel Fellaini
    • 10 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Captain Salah or Haaland?

    1. polis
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Coin flip.

      I'd probably go Salah if I had him.

    2. OptimusBlack
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Salah

    3. Steavn8k
      • 2 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Going Salah, but seems the differential this week

    4. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Haaland

  10. OptimusBlack
    • 12 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Rate my Final WC
    Sels (FAB)
    TAA Gabriel Aina (Greaves SVB)
    Salah © Semenyo Mbeumo Rogers (Dibling)
    Haaland Havertz Solanke
    It's between
    Salah & Rogers v.s Saka & Díaz

    1. polis
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      6/10

      1. OptimusBlack
        • 12 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Liar 🙂

    2. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      looks fine

      1. OptimusBlack
        • 12 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Thank you

    3. MARVELLUS
      • 16 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I was on SR all week, just changed to SF yday.

      1. MARVELLUS
        • 16 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Sorry mean changed to Saka Diaz.

        1. OptimusBlack
          • 12 Years
          1 year, 2 months ago

          Nevermind

  11. Ohh1454
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Who to bench ?
    A. Lewis
    B. Collins
    C. Pau

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Lewis

    2. Letsgo!
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Of course B

  12. Wet Bandits
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Last min tweak on WC, dropped Raya which frees up funds - Thoughts?

    Sanchez
    Gabriel, Saliba, TAA
    Rogers, Mbuemo, Saka, Diaz, ESR
    Haaland, Jackson

    Fab, Faes, Myk, JPedro

    1. polis
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Looks good

      1. Wet Bandits
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Cheers - do we think Sanchez is the better of him & Flekken? Contemplating the .2 ITB for tinkering later on.

    2. Rabb05
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I'd bring in flekken for sanchez. Better long term fixtures

  13. Bod
    • 14 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Jackson or Havertz?

    1. rdamjan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Both 🙂 But for me is Havertz for short-term and Solanke for long-term

  14. yousunkmybattleship
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Raya to Flekken for free or risk no keeper is the question? GK’s never bring many points anyway right

    1. Wet Bandits
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I’ve moved Raya out.

      Flekken/sanchez both good options for C/S.

      Used the funds for both Gab & Saliba

    2. Glasner Ball
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I am going through the same dilema

  15. rdamjan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    On wildcard, what would you change on this?

    Flekken Valdimarsson
    TAA Gabriel Colwill Mazraoui Greaves
    Saka Semenyo Mbeumo Diaz Dibing
    Haaland Solanke Havertz

    0.0 ITB

    One alternative is Colwill & Solanke -> Robo/Gvardiol & DCL

    1. polis
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      It looks good to me

  16. Woy_is_back
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Anyone with a differential captain?

    1. el polako
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Flip flopping between Saka and Erling.

      1. polis
        • 14 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        So, no then.

        1. el polako
          • 8 Years
          1 year, 2 months ago

          True.
          I guess anyone else than Erling is different but looking past Arsenal it’s where true differentials are.
          Maybe Mbeumo for the very brave or Palmer?

    2. Wet Bandits
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I’m on TAA

    3. Letsgo!
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Palmer for me

    4. GGMU11
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Going Havertz over Saka and Erling

    5. Kaneyonero
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Salah TC

  17. Kiwivillan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Wolves squad affected by virus. Might switch C back to Salah

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Did the manager give any names? If its bench players, then it wouldnt matter much.

  18. Kane Train
    • 10 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Best replacement to field for Raya?

    A) Kepa
    B) Flekken
    C) Ramsdale

    1. polis
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Ederson?

      1. Kane Train
        • 10 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Nah only have .5 to spend on top of fabianski

    1. NATSTER

    2. RamaJama

      1 year, 2 months ago

      B

    Any advice

    1. polis

      You are still good. Can't have everyone.

    2. OptimusBlack
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      People worries not having Salah not Saka

  24. Woy_is_back
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Jackson will troll us on his next two gameweeks right?

    1. polis
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Of course!

    2. Holmes
      • 12 Years

      Ouch.

    2. Holmes
      • 12 Years

      Take a -4?

      1. Mr. O'Connell
        • 13 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        No transfers allowed and shafted by consecutive injuries to Wissa and Pedro.

  26. Miami Monkey
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    1. XX SMICER XX

    2. polis
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Save. Bench Winks and the crocked crew.
